California has a zero-tolerance policy for drunk driving, which means that even if your blood alcohol content (BAC) is below the legal limit of 0.08%, you can still be charged with a DUI if the officer believes that you are impaired. Additionally, if you are under 21 years old, the legal limit is even lower at 0.01%.

If you have been arrested for a drunk driving crime in Los Angeles, it is important to understand the serious consequences that you may face. The state of California has strict laws regarding driving under the influence (DUI), and penalties can range from fines and license suspension to jail time and even felony charges in some cases. This is why you need a skilled Los Angeles drunk driving lawyer to help you navigate the legal system and fight for your rights.

What To Expect After A Los Angeles Drunk Driving Arrest

If you’re facing a DUI charge in Los Angeles, it’s important to understand that there are two separate components to your case: the DMV hearing and the criminal court appearance. These two aspects are independent of each other, so succeeding in one does not guarantee success in the other. For example, even if you manage to reduce your charge from a DUI to a Wet Reckless in court, it won’t necessarily guarantee a favorable outcome in your DMV hearing. In other words, even if you’re not convicted of a DUI in court, the DMV can still suspend your license through administrative action. This can be confusing and overwhelming, particularly for first-time offenders, as both components of your case add to the complexity of your situation.

Elements of the Crime

In California, a DUI is defined as driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, to the extent that it impairs your ability to drive safely. The prosecution must prove three elements of the crime to secure a conviction:

You were driving a vehicle
You were under the influence of drugs or alcohol while driving
Your ability to drive safely was impaired by the drugs or alcohol

The penalties for a DUI in Los Angeles can vary depending on the circumstances of your case. For a first offense, you may face:

Up to 6 months in jail
Fines of up to $1,000
License suspension for up to 6 months
Mandatory DUI classes
Installation of an ignition interlock device in your car

For subsequent offenses or aggravating factors such as a high BAC or causing an accident, the penalties can be much more severe and can include felony charges, longer jail time, and higher fines.

Common Defenses

A skilled Los Angeles drunk driving lawyer can help you fight the charges against you and explore possible defenses, such as:

Challenging the validity of the traffic stop or arrest
Questioning the accuracy of the BAC test
Arguing that your impairment was not caused by alcohol or drugs
Negotiating a plea bargain or reduced charges

It is important to note that each case is unique, and the best defense strategy will depend on the specific facts of your case.

Several years ago, I was contending with a serious legal issue. Out of the blue, I became aware that a corporation had obtained a large civil money judgment against me, in court, and on a case I was not aware of. When I became apprised of the judgment and the company's efforts to enforce the debt against me, I became angry and concerned. How would this case and judgment affect my financial future? Was there any way to fix this? I approached several other attorneys for assistance, but they all said the same thing: that because the judgment was over a year old (almost 2 years old, actually) it would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to remove the judgment and to re-open the case. Given what other attorneys had told me about my case, I was not hopeful. But I decided to turn to and hire the Tabibnia Law Firm because I was aware of their strong reputation in both civil law matters and criminal defense cases. Mr. Tabibnia went out of his way to fight for me. To my great surprise, he convinced the court to set aside the judgment against me and to re-open the case. And months after getting the case re-opened, I was astonished when he then got the case completely dismissed! So, I went from having a large money judgment against me to getting the judgment removed and case dismissed in a matter of months. Throughout the process, I found Mr. Tabibnia to be honest, aggressive, competent and extremely fair with his fees. Most importantly, he kept me informed throughout the case. I cannot recommend the Tabibnia Law Firm highly enough.

I am here, writing on the behalf of Mr. Cyrus Tabibnia. From the very first moment we formally introduced ourselves to one another, I felt nothing but sincerity and authenticity from this man. At that very moment I knew, that this was the person ideal to represent me and to do diligence. In which in fact he did do so. He was able to significantly get my DUI and Car Theft charges reduced from felonies to misdemeanors and with one case, completely dismissed. I was not only impressed and satisfied completely, but I was not suprised one bit with the outcome. I highly suggest this gentlemen if you are in deed seeking counsel from someone who legitimately cares, and who will go the extra mile and above and beyond for you.
